Description
We are a small family project offering boat tours with homemade food.
We’re Ana and Ralph, and we live with our 12-year-old son.
We share our island with cats, dogs, chickens, a small forest, and vegetable gardens.
Our home is located in the heart of the Paraná Delta, 30 km from Buenos Aires, and only accessible by boat.
It’s a peaceful place surrounded by nature, ideal for those who enjoy a simple and meaningful lifestyle.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We’ve traveled extensively around the world, and even more so throughout Argentina.
We also work as freelancers in the Argentine tourism industry and live a non-traditional lifestyle, fully integrated into a wonderful island community.
We bring a deep understanding of Argentine culture and have a lot of local knowledge to share.
We’re very sociable, and Ralph is an excellent cook who loves delighting guests with his creations.

Help
There are many different things to do, but no fixed tasks.
The idea is to help us take care of our house, garden, and the area around us.
This can include small repairs, cleaning water pumps, pipes, or parts of the boat engine.
Other jobs are keeping the house, garden, and chicken house clean, cutting firewood for winter, or preparing the soil in the vegetable garden.
We also work often on our boat, for example, taking care of the wooden deck.
This is a great place for someone with general experience in life and work, who enjoys nature and doing different things.
We prefer a minimum stay of 3 to 4 weeks.

Accommodation
We offer a cozy guest room, separate from our main house, with a private shower and toilet.
It’s clean, welcoming, and very comfortable.
What else ...
This is a rural area, so there aren’t many options to walk around, go out for a drink, or eat at a restaurant.
For that, we need to leave the island and go to the mainland.
Our activities usually take place during daylight hours.

El mes que pasé de voluntaria en vuestra casa fue magnífico. Además, vivir en una isla es muy especial y diferente para alguien que no la conoce.
Disfruté mucho trabajando para vosotros y con vosotros para mejorar la casa. Especialmente la pintura, esa tarea a la que me he dedicado con regularidad 😁.

Es tan difícil juntar todo lo que hemos vivido juntos en una reseña tan corta, que les pido perdón de antemano por olvidar algo! jaja
Por primera vez vine a la casa de Ralph, Ana y Octavio casi por casualidad, en mayo de 2023; ya estaba por empezar a vivir una experiencia más aburrida, pero Ana me convenció (literal),… read more

They help us with some electricity issue we had. And they work hard the days of the event, with the cleaning, kitchen work (Alice is very versatile in this issue), even with dog washing!
They adapted immediately to our rhythm and they were very calm and respectful.
